Stupid GT seats
 
Yah, so i was detailing the interior today and noticed that the leather on the drivers seat is getting pretty worn.
I got under 7,000 miles on the odometer.

WTF?

that sure diddnt take long.

Any reccommendations on replacement seats?

They just look worn but the wont crack for MANY MANY miles probably around 100-200k miles so I wouldnt worry about it untill they actually crack

I disagree i have 60,000 miles and my GT seats are all cracked that is with me trying to take care of them. so i finally gave up. the ford GT seats suck

I agree they are just temporary seats for use untill you can order a set of Recaro's :toothy9:

I wish I had leather seats.. :argue:

i would say either get them reupholstered or pick up a set of cobra seats, unless you want to go with some recaro's or similar racing seats. :)

105,000 miles here on my BLACK leather seats, in a BLACK car that spent 80,000 miles of its life outside in NC heat. Mine still look perfect :dontknow:

That's crazy...7000K...I have like 26,000 and mine look new...Do you park in the sun all the time or did the previous owner...if you got it used.

Yeah, 04 GT with under 7k miles. For the first 4-5 months it parked in the driveway untill u could get my hottub moved to the backyard, then the stang has been in the garage ever since, Also, i have a parking garage at my work i park under, plus tinted windows.

It just loosk funky, the only part that is having issues is the driver side seat next to the door where the seat extends out a little to hold you in place. That spot right there isnt cracked, but the leather looks exteremly worn compared to the rest of the seats. i just noticed it the other day when i was detailing my car's interior.

i might have just gotten a crap seat, the rest of the drivers seat is fine, but it looks very worn, and there is one tiny spot almost the size of half a grain of rice that you can see what looks like the yellow padding behind.

it is probably just a flawed seat.

maybe it has to do with height and weight....for exp: im like 6' 3" 270lbs :dontknow:

You callin me fat?
<lol>

The more i think about it, the more i think the seat is just one that was a bum seat. probably a flaw in the leather they diddnt catch. im just 6.0 and 200lbs
